What you do if your work failed, your life failed, never had nothing but misery and loneliness, in resume what you do if you never existed?

**jamestl2** · 05-14-2008, 08:34 PM

I leave DP

Seriously though, I've been there in a matter of speaking, so I write (as demonstrated through forum posts, and more specifically, blog articles that capture your thoughts and feelings).

You go out with your friends, and remind yourself that there are plenty of things out there. You enjoy life, and start living in your "now". You remember that you have an overall meaning to your existence, and most of all, you enjoy what you DO have left.

From my point of view, you only have one option, and that is to pick up the bits, and start rebuilding.

Hello? What part of no existence you didnt get? There are no friends, there are no places to go, there is no money, there is...nothing.
Life is like jail, the more you try to escape the more tight you're locked in...
I lived a life of complete loneliness, very few feelings have left, and one feeling in special has grown in all this years, its ENDLESS HATE!!!!!!!!!!!!! A hate so huge that i think if you grab all world hates and put them together it wont be not even 1% of mine.
If someone would tell me: hey dude, there is this red button, if you push it this planet will explode in 1 billion pieces...i would PUSH IT!!!!

**andrei155** · 05-14-2008, 08:51 PM

Hate of what?

**halo** · 05-14-2008, 08:52 PM

Hate of EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!

**andrei155** · 05-14-2008, 08:53 PM

Why hate of everything? Has everything done something to you on a personal level?

**KML9870** · 05-14-2008, 08:59 PM

I would suggest professional help. There are a number of agencies that exist solely to help people that feel the way that you do. Please - use your internet access to search for the appropriate help in your area.

There are lots of places to go, and a lot of them are free. Start with outside. I'm not kidding on that.

If you want to 'escape' from life, something is wrong. I don't mean that with any offense, but, you have many years ahead of you, and they don't all need to be lived this way.

It doesn't always feel like it, but there's plenty of joy to be had in life.

Try something new every chance you get, and stick with the ones that make you happy. Meet new friends, and, as much as you can, avoid depressed people.

I'm bipolar and couldn't exist without medication. Get some help. If a mental health professional discovers you have chemical depression your life could change dramatically with a few behavioral changes and possibly some medication. Forrest is right about getting outside. Morning walks can help make a huge difference.

**lajocar** · 05-15-2008, 12:03 AM

Get yourself a new hobby or meet some new friends

**jabo** · 05-15-2008, 02:49 AM

Learn from your mistake and when such experience happens again in your life, you would know what to do. Failure happens to everyone and the best thing to do with it is to learn from it, learn to get over it and deal with it, then, move on with your life with a new knowledge.

**arcel** · 05-15-2008, 03:04 AM

eat... take a bath... relax... sleep...
then i forgot everything when i woke up...

**bakerc** · 05-15-2008, 08:32 AM

The advice above sounds pretty solid to me...

You may have depression and professional help should be your first port of call, one thing that has not been mentioned is procrastination

...the longer you wait to speak to someone in a proper environment with the proper skills to help the harder it will be take the first step towards putting everything right.

If nobody cared why are so many people trying to help you by offering advice? There are always solutions but until you speak to someone who can offer them to you, you won't know what those solutions are.

Do it today, if you haven't already, pick up the phone and call your doctor or enquire online - in fact do it now..this minute.

Take that frown and turn it upside down...

**Cheshire_cat** · 05-15-2008, 09:56 AM

What forrest said is good about going outside.

Do you do any activities like that? Can I ask what region you come from?

**jv17** · 05-15-2008, 12:54 PM

well, I have this instance wherein, I am sloppy with my work. I was a sales agent before, and during my 1st month my stats are low..but there was a day wherein I reflect and it helped me alot. So on my 2nd and 3rd month I became one of the top sales agents in the our company..

Feeling depressed? Take a hike.
That’s the advice suggested by recent study at Duke University Medical Center, where researchers compared the benefits of exercise and the medication Zoloft on major depression. Turns out those who walked briskly for a half-hour a day felt about as much better as those who just took the drugs. After four months, 60 percent of the exercisers saw their symptoms lifted, as opposed to 66 percent of the Zoloft users. Six months after that, the fitness freaks still felt better, while those on the drug were more likely to have suffered a relapse.
Now personally, I find this surprising, because having to exercise would just depress me more. But apparently, if you’re already depressed, working out gives you a lift. The researchers aren’t sure why. Maybe it’s endorphins. Maybe it’s getting out with a group of people (since the study exercisers exercised together). Maybe it’s the sense of control subjects felt when they relieved their symptoms through hard work instead of drugs. One thing’s for sure, though: It’s bad news for whoever’s trying to market Zoloft. If you’re making an antidepressant, it should sure as heck work better than half an hour of jogging. I know how I’d feel after half an hour of jogging, and I sure wouldn’t take a pill that made me feel like that.

^^ Excercise is great yes, but you totally discount the fact that many people are in need of medication. In other words.. you cannot excercise off bipolarity and many many other conditions. This study is not sound.

Therapy is important too, even for stable people.

**seolman** · 05-15-2008, 03:22 PM

Your other handle wouldnt happen to be Vasity would it?

**jamestl2** · 05-15-2008, 03:24 PM

Then why'd you ask us?

How do YOU know what we are like in person? It's funny you come on to forum boards seemingly looking for advice, then you're shouting and insulting at people who are JUST TRYING TO HELP YOU OUT!
